FEELING AGAINST HITLER
* ATTITUDE OF BRITISH INDUSTRIALISTS Cpeess association telegram.) AUCKLAND, December 23. Public opinion in Britain is gradually hardening against Hitler, said Mr A. J. Weaver, secretary of the Grimsby Chamber .of Commerce, who arrived in the Orford to-day on a world cruise. The feeling was general, he said, that each concession made was followed by fresh demands, and that it was time Britain said “Halt!” Trade was an important factor. Manufacturers and industrialists thought that Britain should be able to sell in proportion as she bought. German manufacturers were undercutting British quotes by 10 per cent., regardless of profit. That fact underlay the recently-announced British trade drive in south-east Europe in answer to German activities there.
